I just came across a great video clip which explains, in terms a child could understand, the science behind the unimaginable - time travel, altering the past and future, accessing parallel universes and dimensions to change the present, etc.   All the wacky, kooky stuff.

If you have 11 minutes to bring your brain up to speed with these concepts, check it out.

I should add the qualifier that any child who understands this will likely be on the older side.  And probably considered kinda smart too. 

I love this quote from 18th Century German philosopher, Arthur Schopenhauer:

“All truth passes through three stages.

First, it is ridiculed.

Second, it is violently opposed.

Third, It is accepted as being self evident.”

When it was suggested that the Earth was round rather than flat, people went through these stages.

When it was suggested the Earth rotates around the sun rather than the sun around the Earth, people went through these stages.

Now its being suggested and reported that transformation can occur in an instant.   And that we are capable of influencing our ‘reality’ much more than we’ve previously believed.

How would you say that you and those around you feel about that suggestion?

A woman I spoke with over the phone a couple of weeks ago wrote me the other day to describe what she’d experienced as we spoke.  With her permission, I share it with you.   The entire conversation lasted about 15 minutes.   To me, it provides evidence that some of what’s becoming possible in terms of personal transformation now is pretty astounding.   

By the way, I don’t take credit for what she experienced, but I do admit to holding the space for it to occur 

Here’s what she wrote,

“I had extreme feelings of sadness which originated from childhood experiences.   I was consumed with self-hatred, anger, sadness and wanted to check out of this world. I could not think of a reason to keep going. The fact that I was a mother, daughter, a friend, etc. held no weight with the overwhelming sadness and darkness. I was crying for no apparent reason, I felt out of control.

I had heard about  Matrix Energetics (ME) and Wendy. I gave her call looking from some type of RELIEF. This was my last attempt. If it did not work, I decided that I was done.

 What happened when Wendy called blew me away.  (Keep in mind as I describe this that she was in Canada and I am in Indiana.) As we begain to talk, she offered to try doing some Matrix Energetics.  Within minutes, literally minutes; ALL was gone! I felt Love, Joy and Laughter. I had been trying to get relief from this situation for hours and days and ME did it within minutes.To describe it more fully, as Wendy started to work with me, I saw a figure (I choose to call it God) holding his hands out for me, just like a parent holding his hands out to pick up a small child. I saw myself as a little girl (a toddler), I was joyous and without a care in the world; I ran into his arms. He picked me up and I felt LOVE like no other, I knew I was safe and what a warmth feeling went through me.  Love touched the very core of me. 

I then became a little woozy and flighty, but still aware. I sat on my couch for an hour unable to move, after the hour passed I felt extremely tired. I went to sleep for about 15 minutes. I became reenergized. I wen

As part of our ongoing exploration into what’s possible, the Consciousness Playground was joined on May 20, by a special guest.

Kenji Kumara is a quantum healer who works utterly without any ‘technique’ or doing. As he describes it, he simply ‘holds the state of transformation’ and people collapse into that state, entering an expanded state of consciousness as their conscious mind ‘reboots’.

During this week’s teleclass, Kenji demonstrated his unique way of accessing and working in the quantum field. In his words, “If we can hold an internal state or feeling of divine love, anything is possible for the receiver, client or student as well as for the facilitator or teacher. We can access a field or matrix of energy that we can call the matrix of all possibilities. When we align through the meditative state… miracles beyond time and space and distance can occur in the twinkling of an eye.”

On the teleclass, Kenji guided us to discover within ourselves the transformative state he works from. Then he worked with us as a group to “collapse any trauma we unconsciously carry from the past including the ancient past”. Since the call, I’ve received many email reports of Kenji’s work having been a profound experience for folks who caught the call live or listened to the recording later.

Anyone can listen to the recording of this call by joining the Consciousness Playground teleclass community. Details about the three membership options can be found here: http://www.wendydown.com/community/playground

Or, wait until September, 2008 when the recording of the call will be made available for individual purchase in the Consciousness Playground Store.

During our next teleclass, on June 3, we’ll be trying out a fascinating new way (which Reggi Shelley demonstrated on one of our recent Immersion Study Group calls) that allows us to experience, directly in our bodies, how possibilities move through us to manifest into reality. Its the clearest experience I’ve had yet of how we energetically create from thought to ‘thing’ and can identify where in us, any particular one might be stuck.

I love this quote from business guru, Tom Peters:  

“Life is pretty simple.   You do some stuff.   Most fails.   Some works.   You do more of what works.   If it works big, others quickly copy it.  Then you do something else.   The trick is the doing something else.” 

Being willing to always do something else - something not yet tried - is what we do best in the Consciousness Playground teleclasses that I lead.  

“Consciousness” is a topic that’s hot in…  well, our consciousness these days.    Ask the 11 million or so people taking Oprah and Eckhart Tolle’s ground-breaking webclass.  

As many of us grasp the awareness that our essence extends beyond the limitations we’ve always believed,  mind-bending new things to ‘try to do’ occur to us.   

Some work.   (”Can we slow or speed up time?   Apparently.”)

Some don’t.   (Can we teleport ourselves at will?  Maybe not yet…)

But we keep doing something new. 

And according to Tom Peters, that’s the trick.  

Lately I’ve been playing with a technique that seems to have the capacity to resolve pain - even intense pain - within minutes.  Not every single time, but often enough for me to expect that it will work most of the time.   The best part is that as I guide people through it, it teaches them how to resolve pain on their own.  

Here’s the short version of how I do it -
I’ll have the person put their attention on the location of their pain. In their shoulder, say.  Then I have them find a place in their body where there is no pain. (say, in their nose or hand.) I then ask them to hold in their awareness the contrasting sensations that exist in those two places (2 points) simultaneously. 

“Here it hurts.  Here it feels wonderful.  Both are true.”

 I’ll have them move their attention back and forth between the two places.   From a Matrix Energetics perspective, this is a version of the ‘two-point’ technique.

Sometimes as hold the two points in their awareness at the same time, they notice themselves feeling a bit odd, or say that the two points are changing.  Sometimes the sensations  start to ‘merge’. 

Other times, I’ll have them try to see if they can notice that the sensation of ’no-pain’ can spread.  Even towards and through or underneath or woven in between the area where there is pain.   To see if they can find the ’no-pain’ sensation within the same location as the pain.  Even in brief glimpses. 

They usually waffle back and forth a bit at first, but eventually notice that they can either attend to either pain or the no-pain in that location.  It mostly depends which they put their attention on.   Almost inevitably, if they let themselves stop checking for the pain and instead start to relax into or ‘favor’ the no-pain, the pain starts to diminish.  After awhile, if they can overcome any refusal to believe that it could disappear that quickly, the pain becomes inaccessible.    Gonzo.

From a Law of Attraction perspective, the explanation for this is that many ‘vibrational frequencies’ (or feelings) exist as possibilities all the time.  By consciously and deliberating shifting where we put our attention, we can directly alter what is ‘most real’.   

 Try it for yourself. 

Or, here’s an offer.  I’d love to post an audio recording in which I lead someone through this process.  If you want to be the person I do that with, contact me at wendy@wendydown.com.

PS.  I had someone try this same approach with the feeling of a head cold coming on. He found the sensation of ‘no-head cold’ first in his hand then gradually he could find the sensation higher up his arm and eventually right mixed in with the cold sensation in his head. When he was able to stay attended to the no-head cold sensation in his head, the symptoms were no longer accessible and the cold never appeared.

If you’re into exploring consciousness and haven’t yet seen this videoclip of a neuroscientist who’s stroke revealed more fully who we really are as humans, do yourself a favor and take the time to watch it.

As I read it, I was reminded of a prediction I read 18 months ago on Lightworker.com which sounded to me like what Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor may have been experiencing during her stroke.  Here’s an excerpt from that Oct/06 message: 
“There is the rewiring of mankind which is beginning.  The two halves of the brain that had to be separate to give you the illusion of the field of duality are starting to join together.  Instead of having small, synaptic pathways that move back and forth between the halves, as you evolve as humans, the two halves will become one.  The illusion and the veil actually exist between the two halves of your brain, for the left side is the marker of time. It gives you the illusion of living in a field of duality and gives you the illusion of linear time, which gives you a path to follow.  It gives a spirit a game to play as a human.  Your right brain is the all-creative brain but does not have any concept of time. It has no concept of boxes that things fit into.  That is the other side of the brain.  Those two are beginning to grow stronger with this rewiring.  It is not simply a case of new or improved synaptic pathways between the two; it will be a blending of the two as the human animal evolves to contain a higher vibration of spirit…for it is not the human that is evolving.  It is the spirit that is evolving, causing the human shell, the bubble of biology, to change to accommodate it.  That is happening now…”
So what’s the deal?  Is there some truth to this?  Are our brains in the process of evolving to a new, more integrated state in which we can simultaneously experience ourselves as individuals while also living consciously in the state of Oneness, peace and connection that Dr. Bolte Taylor - and many others describe?     I’m not sure, but its what we talked about and practiced experiencing on the Consciousness Playground call that I hosted today.     If you want to hear the call or be part of the conversation, you can do both by joining the Consciousness Playground Community.  

Or keep checking back in here.   I’ll make posts about it from time to time.

I returned home yesterday morning at 4am (Yawn) from a Matrix Energetics seminar in Baltimore.   If you haven’t heard of it yet, Matrix Energetics is a fast-growing, simple to learn way to access the quantum or zero point field and effect massive transformation.   

I kid you not.  Its a phenomenon that’s just starting to break through.

Reggi Shelley, pictured on the right with me above, is a Master Practitioner of this work and one of the seminar presenters. 

This past weekend, Reggi spontaneously demonstrated a group healing/transformation session in which she wove Matrix Energetics together with her own special magic.  While to the outside observer, Reggi may have appeared to simply be moving her hands randomly in empty space, the impact of what she was doing was noticeably felt by the hundreds of people in the room.   If you’re into consciousness work, this was something not to be missed.  I suspect we’ll be seeing this type of energy medicine taught and practiced more and more as its dramatic, and often instantaneous results are documented.

 I’m lucky that Reggi is my co-teacher in the Immersion Study Group Program I offer.   If your curious to see whether you can feel the type of energy ’shift’ we felt with Reggi this past weekend, Click here and you’ll find an audio clip of a Advanced Level Immersion Study Group teleclass that Reggi and I recently did.  If you’re at all sensitive to energy you may be surprised by how palpable the shift is on the recording. 

That, incidently, is why we decided to offer a Recordings Option to participate in that program.  Listening to the Recordings is like being there, because time and space don’t matter.  For details about that program and a chance to regularly hang out with Reggi and I and some other pretty cool folks, Click here.  

I’m currently re-reading the book, “Busting Loose from the Money Game” by Robert Scheinfeld. In the foreward, Jack Canfield shares this insight, “When the time comes for an old set of beliefs and assumptions to give way to a new one, it always starts with a single individual saying, “No, that’s not right…” Invariably that individual is resisted, criticized and even attacked viciously. But a few people listen and see the Truth, then a few more, then a few more, until it reaches a critical mass. Then the old way of thinking collapses and the new way of thinking explodes into mass conciousness.”

You probably recognize this as a time in history where new ways of thinking about consciousness itself are exploding onto the scene. After all, Oprah Winfrey, the queen of the mainstream, is hosting an online course with New Consciousness teacher, Eckhart Tolle. And which over 100,000 people have registered for. Oprah’s resident physician, Dr. Oz, heralds ‘energy medicine’ as the medicine of the future. And Oprah recently introduced some of my favorite teachers (www.Abraham-Hicks.com), channelled though they are, to her audience.

Good lord. What’s next?!

What’s next is exactly what this website is about. The online community I host, The Consciousness Playground explores whatever is newly emerging in energy, intention and consciousness. Wild notions. Inconceivable possibilities.

I’ll post about what we’re doing here so you can take a vicarious peek into what we’re up to.

A peek into the future.
